That is 5.2 per 1,000 residents, against 2 in the typical Saskatchewan town and 1.4 across Canada. Charities are placed by mailing address, which flatters service towns whose post office serves a region and undercounts suburbs and rural municipalities.

Volunteering

36.6%

One figure covers all of Saskatchewan: in 2023, 36.6% of its people gave time to an organization (between 33.9% and 39.5%), against a provincial range of 25.2% to 40.3%.
